I live in Omaha, NE. My pain began 25 years ago. I have been going to a Pain Clinic for almost as long. You basically have to go to a Pain Clinic to have your meds managed. I do receive pain meds. They are reduced as low as possible, but I can function. There are a few clinics here. I go to Momenta Pain Care, it is a great clinic. They have a great staff. I've been to 3 different ones. My last clinic was through Methodist and it was good, but shut down.
Hope you find a clinic and can receive pain meds to relieve your pain. It is a necessity to help those that are hurting, not just make them suffer through the pain. They're definitely needs to be some changes in this area in the medical field.

In Nebraska? Good luck. I’m front NE and I won’t move back there for this very reason. It’s ridiculous. We deserve to have our pain reduced. There is no two ways about it.

I was thinking about the above answer I gave and decided it wasn’t very helpful. I’m sorry about that. I would recommend looking for pain management docs in Omaha. They may be more liberal than the docs in Lincoln. I grew up in Lincoln, and I know what they are like. It’s tough for people with our diagnoses to find adequate care. Good luck and many hugs to you!

Hi Bev, I live in Omaha. It's almost impossible to get pain meds anywhere but from Pain Clinics. I've been going to Pain Clinics for over 20 years.
